Free Rice - Help Feed Those In Need

I have been reading lately about people around the world and what they eat called Hungry Planet.  It has made me realize how fortunate we truly are.  I choose to only spend $50 per week on groceries, but many people don't have a choice and don't get enough to eat.

I was wondering what I could do and came up with an idea.  I am asking that anyone who reads this would be willing to go to Freerice.com and answer 10 questions correctly which will donate enough rice to feed someone for a day.  You can choose between basic math problems, art questions, foreign language vocabulary, etc.  It doesn't take long at all and most people won't take more than 1-2 minutes total to get 10 questions correct.

Link up or comment and let me know how much rice you donated and I will match it by doing the same thing. It doesn't cost you any money at all, just a few minutes of your time.  Thanks for your willingness to help.

  1. I donated 4500 grains of rice yesterday and improved my world geography and German. It was lots of fun!
